Dr. Meghan Larivee earned a bachelors degree in psychology and environmental biology while completing her pre-medical education at the University of Colorado. Dr. Larivee then received her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine, as well a Masters of Science in Chinese Medicine from the National College of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. Before becoming a resident at the Institute for Restorative Health, Dr, Larivee received her internship from an integrative cancer clinic where she practiced both Naturopathic and Chinese Medicine.
As an integrative medicine resident at the Institute for Restorative Health, Dr. Larivee practices primary care medicine with an emphasis on women’s health from fertility to menopause. Her other areas of focus include integrative management of chronic diseases such as autoimmune processes and cancer. Dr. Larivee supports her patients who are currently receiving treatment for cancer by strengthening the immune system to both help mitigate side effects of conventional treatments as well as better tolerate the process.
Dr. Larivee offers unique, holistic, individualized care to support the health and well being of her patients. Appreciating the fact that we are all unique, Dr. Larivee values listening to her patients to assure that her recommendations are as diverse as each individual who comes to see her.
When Dr. Larivee isn’t helping patients at IRH, she can be found knee deep in the outdoors; mountain biking, hiking, kite boarding or doing yoga. Dr. Larivee has backpacked in over 30 countries throughout the world and there’s a good chance she’s already planning her next adventure.
“I am very passionate about my job and I really enjoy working with people who are proactive with their own health care. It is my objective to restore and support balance in the body so that each of my patients can achieve optimal health and well being. Medicine is a balance between science and art; I want every one of my patients to incrementally feel better, sleep better, and live a wonderful life.”
